assault

I was assaulted at a neighbor's birthday party by another guest. That guest now has an assault charge pending. Can I also file a civil suit for pain and suffering?

Re: assault

Based on what you have written, it appears that you might be able to file a civil law suit against the alleged guilty party. Generally, the main item in cases, such as your's, will be your physical injuries and the costs associated with those physical injuries. If my local law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my paralegal Tina ([email protected]) to arrange for an initial consultation.
